Australian Youth Orchestra's Contribution to Musical Life through Educational/Performance Programs for Aspiring Musicians in Urban, Regional and Rural Australia

AYO是澳大利亚有抱负的管弦乐音乐家的卓越中心，也是一家对不断变化的社会艺术条件做出反应的艺术公司，它的历史需要调查它为专业音乐界提供的桥梁，它的社会艺术重要性，并回应问责制的要求。通过研究其创新的培训和表演计划和档案（1948年至今），并将其与国家和海外青年管弦乐队的角色进行比较，该项目将衡量和解释AYO对澳大利亚城市，地区和农村地区文化生活的贡献，包括其参与者的加速音乐发展和增强的职业机会。

The history of AYO, which is Australia's centre for excellence for aspiring orchestral musicians and an arts company responsive to changing socio-artistic conditions, needs investigating re the bridge it provides to the professional music world, its socio-artistic importance, and to answer calls for accountability. Through research into its innovative training and performance programs and archives (1948 - the present) and comparisons of its role with state and overseas youth orchestras, this project will measure and interpret AYO's contributions to Australia's cultural life in urban, regional and rural areas, including its participants' accelerated musical development and enhanced career opportunities.
